Description
Summary:After her parents' deaths, Edyth is sent to live in a priory, where she begins to make a new life--a life that will be threatened by the approach of the Great Plague.
Edyth lost her family and everything she held dear in the blink of an eye. Sent to live in a priory and work with ancient texts, Edyth comes to terms with her new life and the gifts she discovers in herself. But outside the priory, something much worse is coming. With the reappearance of a boy from her past and the ominous Great Plague creeping closer and closer to the priory, it will be up to Edyth to rise above it all-- but to do so she must choose between her dreams and her destiny. -- adapted from jacket
